With remains of harness leather lugs; very rare to find on such large jars.

Overall in Very Good condition considering it was an ethnically used jar.
One of the truly early Apache storage ollas whose large lugs indicated that it was an important basket to move with. The Apache Wars between the US Arm and various Apache tribal groups primarily lasted from 1849 and 1886 and this basket would have been made during this period of constant movement.
